April 22, 2024,Maulbronn-Schmie: Tiefer See, Rossweiher, Kloster Maulbronn, Hohenackersee [UNESCO Welterbe]
Maulbronn is considered to be the most completely preserved medieval monastery complex north of the Alps. The Cistercians began construction in the middle of the 12th century - over the centuries a huge monastery town developed. The monastery has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1993.

The starting point is the free car park in Maulbronn, Friedhofweg. The tour is marked with MB4.

Showing Translation

Descent into the quarry difficult to find. Muddy and steep. But worth it. Maulbronn totally empty.

Showing Translation

Today we're off to the land of 1000 hills again, because the Maulbronn Museum Trail -MB4- was on the itinerary.

From Maulbronn Monastery through the forest to the half-timbered village of Schmie, along vineyards, through the Roßweiher nature reserve, past the Tiefer See bathing lake, and back to the historic half-timbered houses of the Schafhof farm in Maulbronn.
